Chapter 265: Think for yourself

The lieutenant's eyes were blazing, and he stared closely at the baby lying on the side of the boat.

The cold wind on the river was blowing, and the child was leaning on his body, so he could only smile and nod.

Yingbu's reputation was too bad, Lu Shizhi died, and Ziying married the Lu family again, and it was a matter of time before these two countries were beaten. But Wu Rui, who the captain hated the most, was the person Ziying wanted to win over the most.

At that time, the Hengshan State was the most powerful country in the south except for the Chu State, and there were many Baiyue tribes behind it, if it weren't for Xiang Yu suppressing the Baiyue people everywhere, and secretly encroaching on Wu Rui's territory, forcing Wu Rui's heart to Liu Bang, Liu Bang would not win the world after only fighting for more than four years.

For a small Linjiang and Hengshan as enemies, it is simply to increase the difficulty of the game...

Ziying glanced at Chen He, who was lying aside, and the two of them were also full of helplessness.

The matter of Hengshan is still a later story, and the most important thing at the moment is to rescue Qin.

Ziying smiled bitterly, the real dispute between Chu and Han will start in August next year and end in December four years later. Before the next year arrives, the princes of the world will already be in a battle.

The lieutenant leaned over to help Ziying, twisted the sword and cut the rope and asked, "Then I will bother King Qin to talk about it, how can Linjiang help?" ”

"It's... The widow has nothing to do, and this trip to Nanyang is also to see what the king of Linjiang has. Ziying looked directly at the lieutenant and said seriously, "The king of Linjiang doesn't need to send too many troops, just shoot the Wei Wangbao away." ”

"There's nothing to be done?!" Gongwei was shocked, "When Linjiang was in its heyday, it was not the opponent of Western Wei." If there is no conspiracy, the King of Qin will let the Linjiang soldiers die! ”

The rags on the side of the boat and the soldiers in the river snorted coldly, and Ziying became a faint king who asked for help indiscriminately in their eyes.

"Your Majesty, Linjiang doesn't need to be with the Qin State. It is better to take advantage of the chaos of the Qin State and send troops to attack Hanzhong County, which will not only not fight with the Western Wei, but also revitalize Linjiang. ”

"Hanzhong was originally the place where Qin and Chu fought each other, and if you take it at this time, you can also wash the history of the defeat of Chu State, and you can also be reused by the overlord!"

Gongwei's eyes moved slightly, he admired Xiang Yu the most in his life, and this alone tempted him.

Chen He's face was already pale, for fear that the lieutenant would take advantage of the fire to rob him.

The two looked at Ziying, but found that Ziying was not carefree, and lowered their heads slightly thinking about something.

"Huh... The courtiers in Linjiang are all worried about the widow, I don't know what the King of Qin thinks of this? The lieutenant asked with a smile, as if asking for Ziying's opinion.

"King Linjiang can try it." Ziying said with a smile, "If Xianyang can't hold it, the Qin army should retreat to Yongdi and Hanzhong." In addition, the widow has just pacified Bashu, and there are tens of thousands of troops in Hanzhong County, so the king of Linjiang should know how to decide. ”

"Tens of thousands? Hum. "Gongwei Quan Dang Ziying is lying," King Qin doesn't need to panic, this king is under the control of Yingbu at the moment, and his every move is under the prying eye of Jiujiang, so he can't attack other countries at will. The Western Wei Dynasty was also the opponent of Jiujiang, and this king was expected to assist the King of Qin. But... The King of Qin didn't even have tactics, and the only remaining 20,000 elite soldiers in Linjiang could not be careless to die. ”

Twenty thousand?

Ziying had also guessed that there were not many soldiers and horses left in the hands of the lieutenant before, and he still wanted to laugh when he heard this number.

Linjiang alone is not enough to help him, and Jiujiang needs to make a move to break the siege. But how to coordinate these two countries and how to fight, Ziying still has no clue.

In the midst of difficulties, Wei Yi's words suddenly appeared in Ziying's mind - the king should live on the throne in peace, and the trivial matters should be handed over to the courtiers.

Ziying suddenly came to the 'idea'.

"That's the business of King Linjiang!" Ziying wrapped his dark coat tightly and squatted on the boat like a scoundrel, "If the king of Linjiang is always controlled by Yingbu, he will die at the hands of Yingbu if he is useless." Nowadays, helping the widow is also helping Linjiang, and it depends on the king of Linjiang whether you want to do it or not! ”

"Ziying, you are presumptuous!" The Linjiang soldier shouted angrily with his sword.

"The widow is telling the truth." Ziying spread her hands casually, "You will only pay some unrealistic attention to King Linjiang, what's the use of just listening to it?" ”

Chen He and the others didn't know how Ziying changed their attitude, and watched the development of the situation with apprehension.

Gongwei is also a high-minded and arrogant person, and he was a little annoyed by Ziying, but he had to admit that Ziying's words were reasonable.

"This king wants to get rid of the shackles, but the Qin State was notoriously untrustworthy back then, and the Chu people have not forgotten the matter of six hundred miles of land. If the danger of the Qin State is resolved, can the King of Qin fulfill his promise, and how can this matter be guaranteed? The lieutenant asked cautiously.

"Believe it or not!" Ziying raised her face and sneered, "Daqin can still withdraw the army now, Hanzhong Bashu, both of these places have lofty mountains as obstacles, and they are not afraid of the Western Wei Dynasty!" ”

"Don't be afraid of the Western Wei, don't be afraid of the sword in our hands?!"

The Linjiang soldiers couldn't stand Ziying's arrogance, and they all drew their swords to surround Ziying.

"Stop!!"

Gongwei raised his hand and drank, bit his lip tightly, looked at Jiang Shui and frowned in thought.

Xiang Yu can win more with less, Julu defeated the Qin army, and the captain felt that the monarch should be like Xiang Yu, and he was the only one who could find an opportunity in a desperate situation.

Jiangling has been lost, Xiangyang is garrisoned by Wang Ling at the moment, and the remaining 20,000 people are used to deal with the Lu family, and they must not go with Ziying.

There is no need to move the soldiers of the Linjiang State, and you can also help the Qin State, so that the promise that the baby may fulfill one day...

Jiujiang?!

The lieutenant's eyes widened suddenly.

The Western Wei army was so powerful that even Jiujiang couldn't get any benefits. If it is said that Jiujiang will move the army, the two countries will be defeated and both will be injured, but it can give Linjiang a chance to revitalize.

If this happens, it will kill multiple birds with one stone!

Even if Ziying doesn't believe his words, he won't suffer.

The lieutenant turned to look at Ziying, and happened to look at each other.

"Hahaha, the King of Qin is not afraid to enter other countries, he has the style of King Zhao Wuling, and this king admires it." Gongwei pretended to be bold and smiled, "The king of Qin is also a hero, and this king has helped." ”

"Oh? Is the king of Linjiang going to send troops? Ziying asked knowingly.

"It is indeed a troop, but it is not a national soldier from Linjiang, but Jiujiang. This king took the king of Qin to meet the envoys of Jiujiang. ”

The lieutenant said, pulled up the cuffs of Ziying, and urged the Linjiang soldiers to turn the bow of the boat.

The big boats pushed aside the river, and dozens of boats headed southwest.

"It's... Isn't Nanyang Chongcheng Wancheng? Wancheng is in the north, why did the king of Linjiang go south? Ziying was puzzled.

Gongwei's face was gloomy, and he sighed, "Alas, King Qin doesn't know anything. After Nanyang was invaded, Yingbu sent several Jiujiang soldiers to monitor the king, Xiangyang and Zhuyang, and wanted to discuss important matters with Yingbu, and it was good to talk to them. ”

"I see." Ziying nodded again and again, and suddenly saw Ziying who was being guarded by Liu Bang after Xianyang was breached.

Chen He and Worm Da shook their heads at each other, secretly sighing at the situation of the lieutenant.

"In this way, the king of Linjiang is sailing on the river, and he is not all guarding against Hanzhong, but just wants to temporarily get rid of the surveillance of the Jiujiang soldiers?" Chen He asked.

"Exactly..."

In the continuous sighs of the co-lieutenant, Ziying, Chen He, Worm Da, and Wang Zhou disembarked with the co-lieutenant and walked several miles to the former yamen in Zhuyang.

A tall and thin man who looked to be about twenty years old sat sideways on a few desks, holding a brush and scribbling on a map at random.

"What is he doing?!" Chen He gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice.

Each map was painstakingly drawn on animal skins, and in wartime, the map was so precious that it would be a waste to smear it haphazardly.

"This person is Yingbu's courtier, and he is like this every day, thinking about which princes' boundaries belong to Jiujiang." The lieutenant explained.

"It's good to think about it, to fight Linjiang, you need to be the same as Bashu, the Western Wei in the north, the Chu State in the east, and the Hengshan in the south, which one else can they fight?" Wang Zhou rubbed his arm and sneered, catching a glimpse of the captain's face being a little ugly, and hurriedly shut up.

The man seemed to be noisy by everyone's discussions, threw his pen, hugged his shoulders, and watched everyone shake Erlang's legs.

"Lieutenant, who are you carrying?" The young man asked disdainfully, "If the tactics of the Commander of the Evil go wrong, you should know what the consequences are." ”

"Yes, yes, yes... It's the king's fault. The arrogant co-lieutenant bowed his body and laughed, "If there is no important matter to discuss, this king will not disturb Commander Deng." ”

"Big deal? Hehe..."The man smiled exaggeratedly, "Gongwei, you remember that Linjiang is dead, and it is the King of Jiujiang who kindly left a corner of your place, and you can still play as a king." For the King of Jiujiang, as long as you don't look for death and make trouble, there will be no big things here at all. ”

The lieutenant's fists clenched loudly, gritting his teeth but unable to vent.

"This is... King Qin, King Qin thinks..."

"Child?" The man squinted at Ziying, "You want to move the rescue troops to the King of Jiujiang, right?" ”

Ziying was stunned, this person looked arrogant, but he was not stupid.

"The king of Jiujiang once promised the widow that if the Western Wei attacked Qin, the king of Jiujiang would send troops to help. Now it's time for the King of Jiujiang to fulfill his promise, right? Ziying said unhappily, and couldn't stand this official tone in her heart.

"Ziying, you don't have a bad brain, right?" The man pointed to his head and sneered, "The king only promised you to stop Han Xin from attacking Qin, but he never said that he would stop Wei Wangbao." You have all won Bashu, and if you lose a piece of Qin land, you will lose it. The king will help you fight back one day. ”

Ziying didn't expect this to scare the man, but he had already found out that this man must be trusted by Yingbu, and even this small difference was clear.

The man pulled the map with both hands and opened it in front of the crowd. The Qin character in the plugged place was crossed out as Wei, and the Wei character was crossed again, and finally became the word Jiujiang.

Not only here, but the vassal states around Jiujiang have also been "divided" into Jiujiang Kingdom.

"Arrogance!" Chen He couldn't help but shout angrily, "Do you think Jiujiang is the Chu State?" Even Hengshan Kingdom is not sure that is so, right? ”

The man pointed to Nanyang County and chuckled, "Open your dog's eyes and see, this place was zoned by this commander a few months ago, and now it has really come true." This is the strength of Jiujiang! ”

"It's not like to join Bashu and let Yingbu attack alone." Worm choked.

"Hahaha..."The man smiled instead of being angry, and stretched out his hand to the land west of the river, "The Qin people are also worthy of saying such things?" Ziying, do you still remember how the Qin State won the Battle of Hexi that year? Without the help of the Qi State, the Qin State could recapture Hexi?! ”

Ziying sneered, too lazy to explain to him.

The Battle of Hexi was not a war, but five major wars that spanned a hundred years.

Since the earliest reformer of the Warring States period, Wei Wenhou, appointed Li Kui, and Wu Qi, Wei was the strongest prince, and began to move troops to the west to seize the territory west of the Qin River.

The first time he beat the Qin State to Luoshui, and the second time was the famous battle of Wu Qi, with 50,000 infantry, 500 chariots, and 3,000 cavalry, defeating 500,000 Qin troops.

Since the reform of the Gong, the capital was moved to Liyang and vowed not to retreat westward, and the Wei State was also restrained by the eastern battlefield. Qin united with Han and Zhao to send troops, and the third time they were able to defeat Wei.

The fourth time was after the Shang Dynasty changed the law, the Qin army counterattacked to the Wei land in Hedong, but the Wei State was still the overlord of the princes, and the Qin State won first and then lost.

And the man said that the state of Qi helped Qin, it was the fifth time, King Huiwen of Wei sent Pang Juan to crusade against Hancheng, and was ambushed by Sun Bin Maling of Qi, Wei was devastated, and Qin recovered all the land west of Hexi.

Even if there is no Battle of Maling, the military merit system of the Qin State will definitely be recovered.

"Ziying, you don't have to be unconvinced. This battle is a repetition of the Battle of Hexi, if you are really capable, return to Qin to expel the Wei army. The man smiled, "Don't borrow it, even if you win, you won't be able to do it." ”

"After uniting Bashu to fight the battle, it is really enough to blame Daqin in turn..."Worm Da didn't know what to say for a while.

"It's enough to double standard~" Ziying sneered.

"What?" Worm Da didn't understand what it meant, and he wasn't in the mood to understand, "Your Majesty, what should I do now, it seems that Jiujiang won't make a move." ”

Chen He shook his head slowly, "It is not good for Jiujiang for the Western Wei to get the Qin land, and Jiujiang is very likely to send troops. But... I am afraid that I will also take the opportunity to humiliate the king..."

"How's that okay?" Worm Da said urgently, he thought that it was easy to practice swords, and it was not difficult to lead troops, but these things between countries were the most difficult to control.

Seeing that Ziying was silent, Gongwei lowered his head and looked at his legs in a daze.

How to get Jiujiang to make a move?

Is it OK to kneel?

It's not worth it for the sake of the Qin State, but for the sake of Linjiang and for the sake of the father's business, it's not impossible to try...

Fight!

The lieutenant's hands trembled, and he lifted his hem and was about to kneel.

A force tugged at his arm, preventing the lieutenant from bending.

"King Linjiang, this matter is far from this." Ziying whispered.

"But what should we do now?" There was already a crying tone in the co-captain's words.

"Beat him up! Let's get out of breath! Ziying said.

"What?!"

The lieutenant was stunned for a moment, suspecting that his ears had misheard.

If you don't ask for troops to borrow troops, you can still talk about this matter if you beat the people in Jiujiang?

"Commander of the King!" Ziying shouted at Wang Zhou.

"The minister is here!" Wang Zhou endured his anger and knelt on one knee.

"The commander of Jiujiang is too thin, it is too embarrassing for the king of Jiujiang to see people like this, let him gain weight!" Ziying gritted his teeth.

"No!"

Wang Zhou clenched his fists and went straight to the man.

"Hey, what are you going to do?!" The man was startled, and hurriedly jumped off a few cases and clenched his fists to meet the enemy, "This commander is the commander of the King of Jiujiang, and the pioneer of attacking Linjiang Deng..."

"Who do you care? It's you who hit! ”

The man was about to draw his sword, but Wang Zhou kicked the man over, straddled his body, and his fists fell like raindrops.

"Ahh The King of Jiujiang will not... Spare you! The corner of the man's mouth was bleeding, and his mouth was still shouting, "He's ... The king of Jiujiang will set fire to Xianyang City! ”

Ziying was suddenly stunned, Xiang Yu did burn Xianyang City with a fire, so that later generations had to rebuild a Chang'an City in the west of the original Xianyang.

Xiang Yukeng's killing of Qin Bing, Yingbu always participated in it, maybe Yingbu also had Yingbu's share in this matter!

"Chen He, Wormda!" Ziying shouted.

"The minister is here!"

"The king is merciful, it's too light, the two leaders hurry up and help!"

Chen He, after the insect was finished, rushed to the man's side and kicked his arm and thigh.

"This king also..."

"The widow has already had a holiday with Yingbu, so it's okay if there are more or fewer of these things." Ziying stopped the co-lieutenant who was gearing up, "King Linjiang still doesn't want to wade into this troubled water." ”

The co-lieutenant took a deep breath and nodded vigorously.

"Thank you King Qin for stopping me, otherwise this king would have almost run into a catastrophe." Listening to the man's wail, the lieutenant already thought of Yingbu's angry appearance.

"Haha... The king of Linjiang gave advice to Daqin, and a small reminder should be given. Ziying pretended to laugh.

Even if the lieutenant wants to kneel down for this person for the sake of Linjiang Country, it can be regarded as helping him. Ziying was grateful to the lieutenant.

Although Ziying is not very clever in the heart of the lieutenant, he has done what he wanted to do early on, and he can't help but admire a little.

In just a few breaths, the relationship between the two is much closer.

"Come... Someone! The Qin people made a rebellion and quickly killed them! ”

The man endured the severe pain and stood up and shouted, and Wang Zhou was knocked down with a heavy fist, lying on the ground with blood in his nose.

Outside the yamen, hundreds of people with long swords drew their swords and rushed in, looking at the scene in front of them and stunned.

They had heard the man's wail early, but they thought that the man was angry, and did not expect that anyone would dare to do so.

"Who? Quickly let go of Commander Deng! The Jiujiang soldier shouted with his sword.

"With... What nonsense talk to them, kill them! The man yelled.

"Hahaha... Then let's give it a try. ”

Ziying picked up the man's sword, lowered his posture, and looked at hundreds of people with a smile, "Widow let you wait to see the swordsmanship of the Yue people!" ”

The hundreds of Qin troops who followed were waiting far away on the shore, and Ziying happened to take this group of Chu people to try the swordsmanship taught by Hechuan Hu Yan.

"Does King Qin want to defeat a hundred with one?!" The co-lieutenant exclaimed.

"Exactly!"

Ziying said no more, and rushed into the formation to swing his sword.

The open space in the yamen is too small, which is not conducive to the use of long blades, but fortunately, the Yue Ren sword is softer, and Ziying shuttles through it with ease.

"You don't need to care about the number of enemies, you just need to take care of the ten sides, and you will not be right!" The child silently recited the teachings of the joint transmission of Hu harm.

Between the figures, the Jiujiang soldiers in front of them fell to the ground bleeding, and the rest of the people had to step on the corpses that still had residual warmth to fight.

Ziying could have defeated the enemy with one blow, but in order to make the Jiujiang soldiers afraid, he deliberately chopped many more swords, and the final killing move was also wide open.

Within a moment, nearly 100 people were completely breathless, lying in a pool of blood.

The bloodied child held the sword in one hand and smiled evilly at everyone.

"If you want to die quickly, just stand at the front."

The hands of the soldiers in the back row holding their swords couldn't help but tremble.

Bell –

The sword of the 19jiang soldier fell to the ground, completely shattering the last trace of defense in everyone's hearts.

"The Qin people... Butcher..."

"The land of tigers and wolves... Run! ”

Staggering, the yamen left only corpses that could not escape.

"Tut-tut, I just cut a few people, how did this sword roll up? Jiujiang's sword is too bad, isn't it? Ziying smiled and threw down the long sword.

"Commander, can you still talk about borrowing troops at this moment?"
